- This intake circuit 20 comprises, in the direction of flow of air, an air filter 21 which filters the fresh air taken from the atmosphere, a compressor 22, which compresses the fresh air filtered by the filter 21, an air cooler 23 which cools this compressed fresh air, and an inlet flap 24 which regulates the flow of fresh air opening into the intake manifold 25.
- the intake circuit 20 has a flowmeter 28 downstream of the air filter 21 so as to measure the air flow Qair input of the compressor 22.
- the internal combustion engine 1 comprises an exhaust circuit 30 which extends from an exhaust manifold 31 into which the gases that have been previously burned into the cylinders open up to an outlet pipe exhaust 33 provided with an exhaust flap 34 to evacuate the flue gas into the atmosphere.
- the exhaust circuit further comprises, in the direction of gas flow, a turbine 32, and one or more systems 35 of post-treatment of flue gases.
- the turbine 32 is rotated by the flow of burnt gases leaving the exhaust manifold 31, and it makes it possible to drive the compressor 22 in rotation, thanks to mechanical coupling means such as a transmission shaft.
- the internal combustion engine 1 also comprises a high pressure flue gas recirculation circuit 36, from the exhaust circuit 30 to the intake circuit 20.
- This recirculation circuit is commonly referred to as the EGR-HP circuit, in accordance with FIG. to the English acronym of "Exhaust Gas Recirculation - High Pressure”.
- This circuit originates in the exhaust circuit 30, between the exhaust manifold 31 and the turbine 32, and opens into the intake circuit 20, between the intake valve 24 and the air distributor 25.
- This EGR-HP circuit 36 makes it possible to take a portion of the flue gases circulating in the exhaust circuit 30, called recirculating gases or EGR gas, for reinjecting it into the cylinders in order to reduce the polluting emissions of the engine, and in particular the emissions of nitrogen oxides, soot and hydrocarbon particles.
- This EGR-HP circuit 36 comprises an EGR-HP valve 37 for regulating the flow of recirculated exhaust gas, called EGR gas, opening into the air distributor 25.
- this EGR-HP circuit is supplemented or replaced by a low-pressure flue gas recirculation circuit 38, commonly called EGR-LP circuit according to the English acronym of "Exhaust Gas Recirculation - Low Pressure"".

- a throttle valve 40 is provided on an intake duct 41 upstream of the inlet of the compressor 22. More specifically, this throttle valve 40 is located downstream of the inlet of the EGR gas, either downstream the output of the EGR-LP circuit 38 in the intake circuit 20. It controls the flow of the intake gas at the inlet of the compressor 22. It is conventionally used exclusively to increase the flow of EGR gas from the EGR-LP 38 circuit entering the engine, so as to reduce nitrogen oxides (NO x ). The throttling of the inlet via this throttle valve 40 results in a vacuum in the intake duct making it possible to increase the flow of EGR gas and the setting of this throttling makes it possible to introduce more EGR levels. important on the engine's pollution control area.
- the throttle valve 40 is controlled by a motor control unit 50 on the vehicle.
- the engine control unit 50 which constitutes a throttle control module, is also connected to sensors 26, 27 for measuring the temperature T1, T2 and the pressure P1, P2 respectively upstream and downstream of the compressor. 22, as well as the flowmeter 28 of the engine downstream of the air filter 21, providing a value of the air flow Qair at the intake of the engine, so as to receive the measurement values provided by these sensors.
- the motor control unit 50 will implement the strategy of controlling the throttle valve 40.
- This strategy is designed to enable the throttle valve 40 to be controlled according to two driving modes, respectively according to a corresponding first driving mode.
- the throttle valve 40 is used mainly in partial load of the engine where high gas rates EGR are required, to generate a vacuum at the intake to increase the flow of EGR gas in the engine, while the recirculation valve EGR-LP 39 is fully open, and according to a second driving mode, in accordance with the invention, in which the throttle valve 40 is used near a pumping limit of the compressor to generate a helical swirling motion of the gases admitted to the inlet of the compressor 22, so as to repel the pumping of the compressor 22.
- the throttle valve 40 acts as a deflector capable of generating a pre-rotation of the throttle valve. fluid at the inlet of the compressor 22.
- This pre-rotation modifies the triangle of the speeds, which makes it possible to reinforce the axial component in the wheel of the compressor and thus to oppose the decollemen aerodynamic ts of the flow inside the compressor wheel.
- the throttle valve 40 is disposed at a distance between 2D and 10D of the compressor inlet, where D is the diameter of the intake duct where the throttle valve is located.
- the EGR-LP recirculation valve 39 is then completely closed (no recirculation of the EGR gas at the intake) or may be slightly open (low EGR gas recirculated to admission) according to the needs of engine depollution.
- a first step E0 is to determine whether the operating conditions of the engine require use of the throttle valve according to the first or the second driving mode such that described above, either a use of the throttle valve to increase the intake EGR rate or use of the throttle valve to repel the pumping of the compressor.
- the operating conditions can be essentially reduced to the speed of rotation of the motor shaft (engine speed N) and to an indicator of the load of the motor, depending on the torque applied to it, all of these two parameters. defining an operating point of the engine.
- the indicator of the engine load on which the control strategy is based can for example be defined by the effective average pressure (PME) of the engine.
- PME_voyage a threshold value corresponding to a PME limit, called PME_voyage, over which the throttle valve will be more used to inflate on admission, that is to say to force the introduction of EGR gas through the EGR-LP circuit at the intake duct at the compressor inlet, or at the outlet of the circuit LP-EGR.
- a target value of EGR rate T egr ee e * is established as long as the following conditions are satisfied in a step E1 1:
- the opening of the throttle valve is controlled in a step E12 to increase the rate of EGR until the target value of the EGR rate is reached.
- a regulation of the level of EGR r egr is implemented by the control of the opening of the throttle valve 40, which is maintained until the EGR rate has reached the target value. target rate of EGR. This is done by defining a function that determines the new open command value based on the difference between the EGR rate and the EGR target value. This function uses, for example, a PID (Proportional, Integral, Differential) type control, designed to ensure optimal regulation.
- PID Proportional, Integral, Differential
- step E0 if it is determined in step E0 that the load PME of the engine is greater than the threshold value PME Vann age, one switches, in this case, in the second driving mode E20, where the throttle valve 40 is this time used to push back the pumping limit of the compressor 22.
- step E21 a table of pairs of values (Q p0 mpage, (P2 / P1) P ompage), respectively, fluid flow flowing through the compressor 22 and compression ratio of the compressor 22, the set of stored value pairs corresponding to the operating points of the compressor 22 defining its pumping limit.
- This pumping limit corresponds to the points of the curve C1 represented in FIG.
- the operating conditions of the compressor 22 are measured in a step E22 using the sensors 26 and 27 for measuring the pressure and the temperature upstream and downstream of the compressor and the flowmeter 28 of the engine.
- the flow rate Q through the compressor 22 is calculated from the flow rate Qair measured at the flowmeter 28 of the engine and the flow of EGR gas from the EGR-LP circuit 38.
- the pressures P1 and P2 respectively measured upstream and downstream of the compressor 22 make it possible to calculate the compression ratio P2 / P1.
- the value of the flow rate Q through the compressor 22 can also be estimated from the pressures P1, P2 and temperatures T1, T2 measured upstream and downstream of the compressor 22, which in this case will make it possible to dispense with the flowmeter 28.
- the pair of values acquired (Q, P2 / P1) from the values measured by the sensors is compared to the stored table storing all the operating points of the compressor (Q p0 mpage, (P2 / P1 ) p mpage 0) that define the compressor surge limit, in order to detect a risk of compressor surge.
- the risk of pumping is detected when the operating point of the compressor corresponding to the pair of acquired values (Q, P2 / P1) is located too far left in the compressor field.
- the pair of acquired values (Q, P2 / P1) of flow through the compressor and compression ratio of the compressor is correlated with the table of pairs of values (Q pumping, (P2 / P1) p0 mpage) defining the pumping limit C1 of the compressor, so as to detect one or other of the following conditions:
- the correlation of the acquired value of the flow rate through the compressor to the table of value pairs (Qpumping, (P2 / P1) P om P age) defining the pumping limit C1 of the compressor implements the comparison of the value acquired at a speed set point kQ pompa g e which corresponds to the value Q p0 m P age stored in the table for the corresponding compression ratio, multiplied by a coefficient k for adjusting a safety margin, or margin when pumping, with respect to the pumping limit C1.
- the coefficient k is preferably chosen to be greater than 1 and less than or equal to 1, 1 and even more preferably in a range of values between 1, 05 and 1, 1, so as to adjust the value of the coefficient k to the margin at pumping that one wishes to obtain.
- the correlation of the acquired value of the compression ratio at the table implements the comparison of the acquired value with a compression ratio set value k (P2 / P1) pumped , which corresponds to the value (P2 / P1) pom page stored in the table for the corresponding flow rate, assigned a coefficient k 'for adjusting a safety margin with respect to the limit C1 pumping.
- the coefficient k ' is chosen preferably greater than 0.9 and less than 1, in a range of values for example between 0.92 and 0.98, so as to adjust the value of the coefficient k' to the pumping margin. that we wish to obtain.
- a critical operating point of the compressor can be detected before the compressor pumping limit is reached, i.e., before the operating point of the compressor is shifted to the limit area. compressor pumping or even exceeds this area.
- a pumping hazard is detected in step E22 following the verification of one of the two inequalities above, considering the current operating point of the compressor in the compressor field with respect to the limit of stored pumping, it goes into a step E23 in which the opening of the throttle valve 40 is controlled so as to move the operating point of the compressor from the pumping limit.
- the throttle valve controls the opening of the throttle valve in a given position by a preset map providing a value of opening angle of the throttle valve based on torque values through the compressor and rate of flow. compressing the compressor.
- Said throttle opening position is defined so as to improve the flow component of the velocity triangle through the compressor so that the flow rate Q through the compressor becomes greater than k.QpQ m p a g e .
- step E22 when no risk of pumping is detected in step E22, the throttle valve 40 is kept in the fully open position, in step E24.
